fix(github): sanitize gist description and file bodies on read paths
Sibling of #3035/#3039/#3040: list_gists and get_gist still returned raw user-authored gist text to the model. Apply sanitize.Sanitize to description and file contents before marshal. Signed-off-by: Sasha Mitchell <sash.t.mitchell@gmail.com>
